Special mention to Buendia from my opinion - I think he’s really starting to grow now. Does a few duff passes every now and then, but he’s starting to settle

Much better second half, helped by some tactical changes. Cash much tighter on Barnes. Lots of good performances for me but Nakamba stood out. Ramsey good first half, Mings great second half. UTV

Big critic of Nakamba but he was class today. Not just tidying up loose balls but was secure with his passing.

Ramsey was fantastic and really playing like he belongs at this level.

Like Carney's cameo aswell. Need to sort that deal out.

Did McGinn get booked at the end? Out of Liverpool if he did.

Brilliant win. We weren't at the races until we scored and from then on I think we we're brilliant . Buendias best performance. Just a really really good win. The effort, desire, it was just everything about us today. Ps Schmeichel is an absolute shithouse.

We'll play better and lose, really thought that we would be regretting the amount of chances spurned but the grit and focus was exceptional. Special shout out to Tyrone, when he plays like he did today he's an absolute beast.

Great Result, gets us up to 19 points ahead of (my) Schedule. Performance less so, still need that Midfielder in Jan. Konsa, Emi  and Nakamba were great.

The disallowed goal and Nakamba's booking aside I only swore twice in 90 minutes.  That's a hell of a return.  Really impressed by Marvellous again, he's not going anywhere.  Missed a couple of sitters and our passing around their 18 yard box left a lot to be desired at times, we seem to lack some composure.  9 from 12 and moving in the right direction in every sense.

3 points secured, despite the best efforts of Michael Oliver, a foul count of 8-25 and only one booking for them.

More game time for Carney and Sanson is a positive.

Once again, Gerrard did the job at half time.

When they summed it up on 5Live, one of them said "if villa hadn't scored a 2nd goal it could have been different"

So either biased, or just needed to say the bleeding obvious.

But another 3 points
 UTV!!!

Midfield as a whole did well, but Nakamba was majestic l

Nope, Nakamba was our only booking and, for some bizarre reason, Maddison was the only one for them despite them commiting 25 fouls. It's things like that which encourage managers to setup a rotating foul system to break up play. It's pretty sad that we have supposedly professional referees who don't seem to have any idea that it's happening.
